No matter how noisy the public was, after the results were released, Qin Mo left Beijing overnight and was sent to Jinnan to take up a post.

Anbo Palace.

After dinner, Yu Yan took Gu Luo for a walk in the yard to eat.

"...Qin Mo is taking the emperor's way in taking office. On the Kyoto side, no one, whether it's the queen's people, Prince Duankang's palace, or the second prince, will attack him for the time being."

This is the best ending that Yu Yan can think of for Qin Mo.

"If he goes there, he will have the emperor's care and his life will not be too bad."

Gu Luo held hands with Yu Yan, feeling the warmth in his palms. Outsiders said that the young prince Yu was cruel, sinister, insensitive, and heartless, but she really knew whether the young prince had any feelings or not.

Qin Mo was kind to her, and Yu Yan repaid this kindness generously. I dare not say anything else, but at least she gave him a guarantee in his official career.

In order to send Qin Mo away safely first and not be involved in the turmoil in Kyoto, Yu Yan has pressed the pause button on dealing with Prince Duankang's Palace, giving Prince Duankang's Palace a chance to breathe, but it is not a missed opportunity.

.

After all, it would indeed take several days for Prince Duankang's Palace to discover Prince Anbo's cannon.

"By the way, didn't I say before that when we bombed the Prince's Mansion, there was another group of people over there who also bombed the Prince's Mansion? Have you found out who it was?"

The two stopped under the crabapple tree. Gu Luo reached out to pick the fruits on the tree and asked Yu Yan.

Yu Yan lowered the branches for her, watched Gu Luo pick three or five fruits, let go, and handed her a handkerchief to wipe the fruits.

"No, I can't find it..."

"Hey! Cat!"

Gu Luo was taking Yu Yan's handkerchief and wiping a red crab apple when he suddenly saw a black cat leaping from the wall to the roof. He screamed in surprise and chased towards the roof.

Two steps.

Yu Yan turned his head to look in the direction of Gu Luo's finger.

He didn't see clearly, he only saw a flash of black passing by.

Gu Luo's face was filled with excitement, his eyes still looking straight at the direction where the cat disappeared, "Do you remember when I detonated saltpeter in the Queen Mother's palace? I told you at that time that I was short of charcoal and had a cat.

The black cat happened to climb in through the back window and brought charcoal."

Yu Yan said in disbelief: "Don't tell me it was the one just now?"

Gu Luo averted her eyes and looked at Yu Yan, her bright eyes filled with excitement and heat. She nodded heavily, "That's it. I can't remember it wrong. It's all black and the size is the same."

Yu Yan frowned, "There are no cats in the palace, and besides Huanhuan's dogs and Xiaoqing, we don't have any other animals in our house."

How did this black cat enter the palace and then come to Prince Anbo's Mansion?

Gu Luo didn't think about this. She only thought about the last time the black cat appeared and gave her the charcoal she desperately needed. If the black cat appeared this time, there would be any surprises.

Recalling the place where he saw the black cat for the first time, Gu Luo took a bite of the fruit and turned around and walked in that direction.

There is a clump of roses planted at the base of the wall. When they were in full bloom, they were all brilliantly purple and red. Now that the weather has cooled down and the flowering period has passed, only a few delicate flowers are left leaning on the branches.

Gu Luo walked over and saw something crystal clear among the flowers, glowing dazzlingly in the sun.

Yu Yan stopped Gu Luo, "I'll go."

He lifted up his robe, pushed aside the flowers, and picked up the thing from under the wall.

"What is this?" Gu Luo immediately stepped forward and asked.

A bead about the size of Yu Yan's fist, crystal clear, shining in the sun, colorful and dazzling.

Yu Yan stared at the bead, his eyes a little straight.

Gu Luo bumped into him and asked, "What is this?"

Yu Yan's Adam's apple slipped and he was silent for a moment, "I heard someone said that when the Xiao family's army was fighting in the south and north, they found some treasures sunk at the bottom of the river from the Minjiang River area, including a colorful night pearl.

When the night pearl is placed under the sun, it will be colorful and dazzling. When it absorbs enough sunlight and is placed in a room, when it is at its brightest, one bead can illuminate the entire room clearly, which is better than a candle."

After a pause, his voice trembled a little, "I heard that the bead later fell into the hands of my mother-in-law and was brought to the former crown prince's palace as a dowry for my father."

Gu Luo was completely shocked.

The last time she met the black cat, the black cat brought her charcoal. It could be said that the black cat brought her charcoal by chance.

But this...

Something that belonged to Yu Yan's parents appeared under the wall of Prince Anbo's Mansion, or did they find it based on the location where the black cat appeared... Can this be considered brought by the black cat?

Gu Luo blinked, not knowing how to speak for a moment.

Yu Yan held the bead and looked at it for a while, then put the bead into Gu Luo's hand. He turned around and rummaged through the flowers again.

I searched carefully along the walls for an hour, but found nothing.

Of course, it was impossible to find anything. This house was renovated when Yu Yan moved in, and these roses were planted later. If there was anything, it was discovered at that time.

Returning from the flowers, Yu Yan murmured, "It's impossible for anyone to come into our house, let alone, this is our main house."

Gu Luo understood what Yu Yan meant.

Prince Yu, who never believed in ghosts and gods, was disturbed by the excitement of this bead.

Yu Yan grabbed Gu Luo's hand and squeezed it tightly, "Back then, my father's prince's palace was burned down by a fire. A cat jumped out of the fire and pounced directly on the emperor who was present at the time.

At that time, the black cat came out."

Although it was unbelievable, Gu Luo held Yu Yan's hand and comforted him, but at the same time he felt strange, "Perhaps the Crown Prince and Crown Princess have spirits in heaven. Seeing that you are having a hard time, they came to help you."

Before Gu Luo finished speaking, Yu Yan burst into tears and wrapped Gu Luo in his arms. He looked up at the place where the black cat disappeared.

At that place, on the empty roof, only blue bricks and blue sky could be seen.

On the other side of the roof, where Yu Yan couldn't see it, a black cat squatted there elegantly, staring in the direction of Yu Yan and Gu Luo, with tears in his eyes. It stayed there for a long time, until Gu Luo took it.

When Yu Yan returned to his room, the black cat turned around and jumped off the roof and left.

In the house.

Gu Luo placed the night-bright pearl on the bed where the sun could not find it. Sure enough, the night-bright pearl was dazzling in the sun and exuded a faint warm luster, illuminating the bed.

Yu Yan stared blankly at the night pearl, feeling a little unable to relax for a while.

Who can take it easy?

His father and mother were dead, all the old people in the house were dead, and suddenly a black cat that was rumored to have appeared in the past appeared inexplicably. This was fine, it could be regarded as a coincidence, but his mother's appearance from back then appeared again.
